An exisitng array of huts and portakabins has been replaced by the new Pre-School and Kindergarden. Conceived as a Dragon-Fly adjacent to the river Darent, the wings oversail the classrooms and the green roof spine locates all other accommodation. The building is simple in its geometry and offers a diverse range of internal and external spaces. Colour, light and views enliven the learning environment. The building achieved planning permission under delegated powers in its Green Belt setting.
I decided to use Shape Architecture after we were awarded a grant from Sure Start funding form Kent County Council to build a new Pre-School and Kindergarten. A building which had to meet the Early Years Foundation stage specifications and be environmentally sound. Jason’s professional attitude was impressive immediately. The design is above all expectations. He has been reliable and supportive throughout the project and I would wholly recommend him to design and create an amazing structure for what ever purpose you have in mind.
